There was a really inspiring 2015 topic made by Samovar mentioning
some sightings from this really Great 1979 Movie , The Warriors .
It is a must see for anyone if you havent seen it until now.

It was only 3 days ago since i found a JVC RC-828L so i m going to use the exact words used by my dearest friend
when he made the topic since what he presented is well thought and said.

The Warriors, from the acclaimed 1965 novel by Sol Yurick, is a cult movie directed by Walter Hill in 1979.
Modeled after Xenophon's Anabasis(circa 370 BC), where an army of Greek mercenaries at the service of Cyrus the Great wins its way back home from Persia, this dystopian tale of the New York gangs is twice told via the radio.

Literally, because the pace of the movie is punctuated by the threatening on-air messages of a woman DJ. Symbolically, because at some point the broadcast is transmogrified into the close-up of a boombox: JVC RC 828L

So here are some pictures of what can be seen at the movie :







I didnt know about the movie until then but since i saw it , it became an instant favourite.
It depicts a New York City from another time and the storyline is so strong
but i wont spoil it if you want to see it !

I already had the Soundtrack of this movie in Vinyl so i was waiting for the JVC RC-828L
to come up and it did.

Some pics i took on purpose for the ocassion :

I watched this movie when it was first released and it certainly made an impression on me, the enduring music track that still sticks in my mind is the Baseball Furies Chase.

As for the BB, I have one of these and it's a good sounding box for the size, a favourite of mine due in part to the styling.

that's one of my favorite movies I remember the guys on the bus that were chasing the Warriors had the JVC.
Awesome movie and awesome box.
